Why Do We Get Lost in Crowds?

Sometimes, when you're in a big crowd, your brain gets confused. It can't tell where you are because everyone around you looks the same and moves in similar ways. This is like being in a giant puzzle with too many pieces, your brain just doesn’t know where to start.

When there are a lot of people moving together, it's hard for your brain to track individual movements. You might feel like you're floating or drifting, instead of walking clearly. Your brain gets overwhelmed and can't tell what direction you’re going, just like how it’s easier to lose your way in a maze with no walls.
